We have to announce that our senior chief of the Kullik Holzagentur, Mr. Herbert Kullik, passed away on June 16th in the age of 83 years. His father founded the Holzagentur in 1949 and Herbert Kullik took over the management in the mid 1950s. The company grew up into one of the biggest timber trader in Berlin. He retired from the operating business in the mid 1990s but remained available to the company in an advisory capacity. Herbert Kullik spent most of his life working in the timber industry and some of his alliances still exist today. We will always be grateful to him for his work in our company.
